Making out - a big deal?

Hmm.. Personally, I don't like making out as is. So for me to make out that person would really have to mean something to me. I suppose it just matter who you are and what you think of kissing. Some people find kissing more romantic and meaningful and brush off anything stronger than that, like one nighters, as nothing. On the other hand some people find anything stronger than kissing more meaningful and romantic than kissing. Just depends who you are I guess. For me it's a big deal I suppose.

 

In my opinion, I don't think it is a big deal, not like sex is. I mean, going around kissing a load of guys/girls isn't a huge deal compared to randomly sleeping with them I think. Although, I do see where you're coming from, I don't think it's as precious as sex is but it's still something which should be shared by two people who like each other. I wouldn't go around kissing a bunch of guys for fun, I don't think it is something that should be just for fun but I don't think it's a huge crime either.

 

Nah, making out with my best friend isn't really something I would like, he's not a hot chick. >_>
I only want to say that it's really disrespectful doing it in front of other people, no matter the relationship.

 

Well... making out could end up taking it to the next level...(sex) I said it could! >( dont bash me on that. but i couldnt do it to my friend, best friend... it would one be too weird and second the first kiss shouldnt be used on someone who you wont spend your life with... kinda a waste. (aka someone before me said something about saving the first kiss... i forgot who that was, you made a great point!) Oh i had a friend who could make out with a girl, and be fine with it... i would just stare at him...

 

In my opinion I think making out would be much preferable if it was between two people who are genuinely together and care deeply for each other. Making out with a best friend or some friend of yours is just weird. I mean, I wouldn't even face that person the next day if it were me of course. I'd be embarrassed lol.

 

I think it just depends on the context that it happens in...if you're at a party and you make out with someone then its not really that big of a deal imo. But bestfriends? Two people who hadnt gotten to that level in a relationship before? That sort of thing requires build up and stuff haha so I'd imagine it would be kind of important.

 

I would never randomly kiss my female friends , it doesn't feel right unless i was dating them or something .

 

I'd have to agree, whenever I see people making out I want to puke, on those people making out.

 

i wouldn't puke , it does make me feel ... uncomfortable ... most of the people i know do it all the time ... makes me cringe

 

In my opinion, making out, kissing and other close contact should be reserved for intimate couples only. It holds a great value since it is a form of affection between two people, and casual makeouts seem to take that respect out of that affection. What respect would be left in affection if the beauty of it was taken out by making it seem so casual? And people question why relationships are so short these days? Why wouldn't it be if people only think of these affections as something so simple enough to brush off.

Intoxicated or not, "practice" between two best friends or not, or even if it was just spin the bottle, a kiss is a kiss, and once it has been given out, you cannot have it back. Making out, and kissing is meant to be affection, not casual encounters.
